Thamo Naidoo
Ministry in Pietermaritzburg

Thamo Naidoo has been in the full time ministry since 1985.

Through this period of time it has endured the rigorous processes of spiritual and physical formation before presenting itself as a fresh biblical paradigm distinct from that of its Pentecostal/Charismatic counterparts. At the heart of this season is the passionate pursuit to align the church to apostolic biblical patterns, free from conformity to secular and humanistic influences. GMS serves as an apostolic centre in the heart of the economic capital of South Africa. Its mandate is to be a strategic gate for the presentation, proclamation and modelling of the apostolic message to the nations. In pursuit of its mandate GMS will seek to constructively and practically provide a biblical, Christocentric model of ministry, offering a deeper spiritual encounter for the family of God. He is a graduate of the Bethesda Bible College, Full Gospel Church of God, South Africa and has earned a Master of Theology degree at the University of KwaZulu-Natal. His purpose is centred on the call for the restoration of the church to ancient biblical patterns of building and for the emergence of the corporate son of God in the earth. He accomplishes this through leadership and development interventions hosted over the course of the year that address current and pressing global issues. Two of these forums which are strategic and invaluable are the Apostolic Schools of Ministry and Perspectives on the Apostolic. It was with this principal mandate that the ASOM was launched in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa in 2001 and has since been established as an apostolic resource platform to assist leaders receive instruction and guidelines for transition into the apostolic season. POA is a ministerial and leadership forum directed at pastoral elders and leaders in the market place. The objective of the POA is to present a Christocentric gospel of present truth, together with biblical and prophetic perspectives relevant to the current season, known to many in church circles as the Apostolic Reformation. Over the years the POA has received critical acclaim as a conduit for bringing together the church in the city. Since its inception in Pietermaritzburg more than a decade ago, the POA has grown exponentially and is now held in key cities in South Africa. The Forum was established in August 2010 as a platform from which specialists in various fields would address the church and the marketplace on religious, socioeconomic, political and other matters relevant to the transformation of the African continent. Empower the sons of God to accurately represent His kingdom in the gates of corporate society. Provide spiritual resource for the fulfilment of the end time purpose of God in and through His church. Challenge the status quo of the systems of the world with fresh biblical paradigms. All delegateswill need to arrange their own transportation including airport transfers.
